Dragon COTS 2+ - Falcon 9 v1.0 - Canaveral SLC-40 - 22.05.2012 UTC

[Александр Репной]

Если 19 мая улетит Dragon, когда планируется его стыковка с МКС?

можно пересчитать http://www.novosti-kosmonavtiki.ru/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=921869#921869

Меня интересует дата и особенно время стыковки, если конечно таково известно уже.

Кто-нибудь может сделать видеозахват полной трансляции если старт на этот раз будет?

На ютуб почти сразу выкладут от и до :wink:

Напр., канал "nextlaunch's channel"
и он же в твиттере - Next Launch @nextlaunch

Спасибо.
 SpaceX у себя на ресурсе режет видео старта, а иногда интересно просмотреть всё подряд.

Что-то на насаспейсфлайт говорят про отказ GPS-аппаратуры на станции и возможный перенос вправо на +3 недели.

Про вправо не знаю, а на http://spacestationlive.jsc.nasa.gov/displays/adcoDisplay4.html GPS вроде показана как работающая (GPS 1 - DOING POSIT, GPS 2 - 3 спутника).

Планируется замена блока гироскопов/GPS приёмника №1.

Вот что пишут в NSF:

Да ладно - перенесут сколько требуется, отладят то что не отладили - и слетают к МКС нормально.
ИМХО это лучше и грамотнее чем не откладывая поиметь в полете серьезный трабл и сорвать полет.
Или пойти по стопам уважаемого Циблиева и расхерачить на этот раз  Асмериканский Сегмент МКС

[Wishbone]

Полностью согласен, кроме того, по книжке 1 гироблок в ауте - NO GO.

Дракон ладно, а вот где топикстартер?

Дракон ладно, а вот где топикстартер?

Согласно некоторым инсайдерам - до МКС несмотря на козни Роскосмоса добрался таки член который сможет стыковать Дракон.

Astronauts Repair Comms Unit For SpaceX Flight[/size]
By Mark Carreau mark.carreau@gmail.com

May 15 , 2012

International Space Station astronauts Don Pettit of NASA and Andre Kuipers of the European Space Agency have replaced a UHF communications unit aboard the station that will be required for the upcoming berthing of the unpiloted SpaceX Dragon cargo capsule.

The Dragon is scheduled to lift off from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, Fla., atop a Falcon 9 rocket on May 19 at 4:55 a.m. EDT, initiating the first U.S. commercial resupply mission to the orbiting science lab.

One of two Commercial Orbital Transportation System (COTS) Ultra High Frequency Communication Units, an internal electronics device developed by SpaceX to permit the station's astronauts as well as the company's flight control team to transmit commands and receive signals from Dragon, failed on May 10. Both must function as part of the commit criteria for the Dragon mission launch. The replacement took place May 14.

"We want both systems up and operating for redundancy," says Mike Horkachuck, NASA's SpaceX COTS project executive. The exchange of GPS signals through the system is critical to the relative navigation that permits Dragon to approach the ISS and the station crew to issue commands aborting a rendezvous, if necessary.

If the Dragon test mission unfolds as planned, the capsule and a cargo of just over 1,000 lb. of nonessential supplies will approach the station early May 22. Pettit and Kuipers will grapple Dragon with the station's Canadarm2 and berth it to the U. S. segment for an 18-day stay.

Meanwhile, a three-man Soyuz crew raced toward docking with the station early May 17, following a flawless climb to orbit from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan. The TMA-04M transport carrying Russians Gennady Padalka and Sergei Revin and American Joseph Acaba will restore the station to six-crew operations for the first time since April 27 when they dock at the Russian segment at 12:39 a.m. EDT.

Their Soyuz 30 mission lifted off on May 14 at 11:01 p.m. EDT, or 9:01 a.m. at the launch site.

The newcomers will be greeted by Pettit, Kuipers and Expedition 31 commander Oleg Kononenko of Russia.

During a four-month mission, Padalka, Revin and Acaba expect to greet U.S., Russian and Japanese replacements for Kononenko's crew as well as Japanese, Russian and perhaps additional U.S. commercial supply ships. In late July, Russia's 47 Progress freighter will depart the station and return in a flight test of new

Padalka and cosmonaut Yuri Malenchenko, a future crewmate, have trained for a spacewalk to prepare the station for the arrival of Russia's Multipurpose Laboratory Module, possibly next year. If time permits, the spacewalkers will install protective orbital debris shielding on the Russian segment.

The station's crew is serving as operators or subjects in about 200 science experiments and engineering evaluations as well. "That's our main focus," Acaba says.

Padalka, who served as the station's commander in 2009 and 2004, will become the first person to lead a station crew for a third time when Kononenko, Pettit and Kuipers depart in early July. Revin, an NPO Energia flight-test engineer, is flying for the first time. Acaba, one of NASA's educator astronauts, is a former Florida middle and high school science and math teacher, and a U.S. Peace Corps volunteer. He served aboard a shuttle space station assembly mission in 2009.[/size]

Space Station -- Here We Come!

When SpaceX's Dragon capsule launches in spring 2012, a very special payload will be on board: 15 student experiments from the Student Spaceflight Experiments Program. The big deal is that those experiments from "SSEP Mission 1 to ISS" will be part of space history. Dragon will become the first commercial vehicle to dock to the International Space Station, and these student experiments have the distinction of being the only payload on board.

The launch of SpaceX's Dragon not only marks the beginning of a new approach to U.S. space access -- it clearly demonstrates that students still have an opportunity to explore in the post-shuttle era. The first two rounds of SSEP experiments were carried to the station in 2011 aboard space shuttles Endeavour and Atlantis on their final missions, STS-134 and STS-135, respectively. The set of SSEP Mission 1 experiments, called Aquarius, was originally slated to fly aboard the Soyuz 30. But in an interesting twist of fate, the experiments were re-manifested on the maiden voyage of the SpaceX Dragon. Aquarius not only becomes part of a historic first but also allows the space station to remain an out-of-this-world platform to engage students in STEM -- science, technology, engineering and mathematics.

Space station managers give go for SpaceX launch[/size]

NASA's space station management team on Tuesday approved plans to launch SpaceX's first commercial flight to the complex Saturday, signing off on software changes governing the privately-built capsule's final approach to the orbiting outpost. Launch from Cape Canaveral is set for Saturday at 4:55 a.m. EDT (0855 GMT).[/size]
